Thanks! And I did mean to make a joke about entering the Odyssey discourse, but I got swept away to the next island challenge (song).

Of course we all know what would happen if this person wasn’t a white Christian, but also, this kind of proselytizing is not about converting or even delivering a message to anyone. It’s a self-aggrandizing act of domination. It’s an actual sin of vanity.

Evangelist Whitney Lynn says she preaches on planes because she loves “a captive audience.” She's not alone. It's becoming a trend. If spreading your message requires listeners who can't escape, maybe it's not as compelling as you think. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/christian-...

The Tompkins Sq. Park is free, but we’re to raise the last bit of money needed to finish the new construction on ABC No-Rio, so you can make donations there, if you want!

Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

I have previously written about one reason that billionaires find the AI story so compelling: at root, many billionaires just don't believe most other people are actually, fully real. How could they? Achieving billionairehood requires that you inflict pain on vast numbers of people. 13/

The continuation of the genocide in Gaza does not manifest in the almost-daily killing of civilians, which while horrible is not evidence for genocide. Rather, it is Israel's refusal to allow the recovery of the most basic conditions of life, which shows the attempt to destroy an entire society. 1/
